    BAC (Battersea Arts Centre) is renowned for making some of the most cutting-edge new work in the UK. Our mission is to invent the future of theatre by nurturing the creation and development of theatre, music, visual arts, live art, and multimedia performance from talented emerging artists.

    Our Participate programme offers people of all ages and backgrounds creative opportunities to take part in the theatre making process. YPT, our Young People’s Theatre, gives 13-25 year olds the opportunity to create their own work with exciting artists and perform on a professional stage.

    Housed in a Grade II listed old town hall we have many different, unique and unusual performance spaces, alongside more traditional black-box studios. Relaxed and informal, BAC aims to be a home for artists, staff and audiences. Grab a drink in our cosy café bar, peek behind doors to explore the building, and experience the future of theatre before everyone else.

    BAC has clubbed together with 11 of London’s most exciting theatres to offer you and your mates lots of ‘nights less ordinary’ across the capital.

    The Almeida Theatre, Battersea Arts Centre, Bush Theatre, Donmar Warehouse, Greenwich Theatre, Hampstead Theatre, Lyric Hammersmith, Royal Court, Soho Theatre, Theatre Royal Stratford East, Tricycle Theatre and the Young Vic have joined up to offer under 26’s a huge choice of truly great nights out at the theatre.

    Through this group, you can discover some of the best performances that London has to offer, from up-and-coming new talent and stage and screen’s most famous faces. These theatres also have some of the most stylish cafes and buzzing bars in town - great for hanging out with your friends, people-watching and star-spotting.

    There will be free tickets on offer for at least one of the theatres in the group almost every night of the week. Once you’ve taken up a free ticket at one of the theatres, you can either:

    a) Get a free ticket at another of the theatres listed in this group b) Take advantage of the theatre’s other special offers for young people. c) Or take advantage of the discounts for people 25 and under available at all of these theatres – which will be no more than £10 each and as little as £3 at some.

    • 6.0 How Heap and Pebble Took on the World and Won

      Five years ago the last of the world’s ice disappeared. A year after that the sport of ice dancing went with it.

      Tonight Heap Krusiak and Pebble Adverati, the greatest ice dancers the world has ever known, will attempt to bring back what the world took away. Against all the odds, they will compete to prove that they will not be beaten. As they face the greatest challenge of their careers, the world is watching.

      This is their incredible story, the story of sportsmen and women who never say die, the story of friendship and love when everything else has disappeared, and the story of how we cope when our environment stops providing us with what we need.

      ‘Brilliant… it's intelligent and rather poignant’ Guardian

      Following the success of 21:13, Dancing Brick is excited to present the company’s second smash-hit show, a beautiful play about loss, love, human survival and ice dance.
